Add WOW to freshwater aquariums with never-before-seen LED color blends. Current USA Satellite Freshwater LED+ Fixture is the industry's first RGB (Red, Green, Blue) PLUS White LED light fixture optimized for freshwater aquariums with full wireless remote control. In other words, you can instantly switch from brilliant general purpose LED illumination to amazing color lighting or dynamic light effects with the included 32-key customizable wireless remote. Boldly stylish and elegantly sleek, the Satellite Freshwater LED+ Fixture is smartly priced, perfect for beginners setting up their first aquariums as well as seasoned hobbyists ready to join the LED revolution!

Six pre-blended freshwater optimized color spectrums are located at the top of each remote. These pre-blended color spectrums are the perfect colors for most freshwater fish. They are also ideal for using as a "base color" and custom blending your own preferred color spectrum. To customize simply:

Choose a base color preset

Add or remove Red, Green, Blue or White color spectrum by pressing any of the eight colored arrow buttons (up increases the amount of a color and down decreases the amount of color)

When you reach your custom color, simply press one of the four memory buttons (M1, M2, M3 or M4) for four seconds and the fixture will flash when complete

Your custom color is now stored within the memory of the unit

Dynamic Lighting Effects
There are 16 preprogrammed dynamic lighting effects, which simulate natural weather conditions and are available on-demand by simply pressing the designated effect button. The effect can be paused at any time by pressing the play/pause button. Please note: When a dynamic effect is chosen, it will replace the customized or preset color and the light will only revert back to the color by pressing the preset color or memory button.

The time a reef spends under moonlight is believed to be as significant as the time spent in full daylight. Moonlight promotes both internal and external activity among the many thousands of reef organisms.

Many aquatic species come alive at night. In the wild, moonlight triggers an array of biological activities. Whether you've got a freshwater, marine fish-only-with-live-rock, or reef aquarium, use nocturnal lights to illuminate nighttime behavior.

Advances in technology are often assimilated and quickly incorporated into the aquarium hobby. This allows aquarists to take the hobby into a new and interesting frontier that was once impossible without the aid of these devices.

Great buy at an affordable price
I purchased a pair of these lights a few months ago and I am very happy with the purchase. They perform as advertised and my plants, especially Lotus, love it. You can switch to different colors by either using presets or customize them to your liking. I had old style fluorescent fixture that was bulky and required fans to cool it and not to mention the replacement bulbs were pretty expensive. This fixture, on the other hand, is slim and does not require any cooling fans. One drawback, and I am hesitant calling it as such, is that it is not programmable. I use a timer to turn it on and off so this is really not a big issue.

An Amazing L.E.D
At first glance when package was opened I didn't think it would bright enough for tank. This is an amazing light, Easy to use, multiple settings, and powerful.

Amazing Product
What else can I say that hasnt been said about this unit? This light fixture is AMAZING! I have been doing a lot of research on the web about an LED light fixture for my Discus tank. I say a few videos of the other LED fixtures but none of them could compare with the Current USA brand. There are so many features on this fixture that it is nearly impossible to get tired of it. It is unbelievable how versatile it is. The design is great. Slim, Light and just modern. The presets are great as well. I cant stop looking at my fish tank while the light is on. My Discus look great and my hardscape looks awesome. This fixture is so great that I decided to order another for my smaller tank.
Do yourselves a favor and buy this fixture!! You will not be disappointed. The price is certainly right and it does what its supposed to do with flying colors.

You cant go wrong
This light is awesome, it will change the way you think of aquarium lighting forever. The light itself has magnificent color combinations and can be customized to show off the color of your fish. The remote function is very nice, it allows you to change the color of the tank from your favorite chair. The only negative I can think of is the remote is actually the only way to turn on the lights. If the remote fails which in my case it did you will be without lighting.. A simple call to the manufacturer and a new remote was here in a few days. The fish absolutely love this light as it can represent a very true illumination of what they would encounter in their natural environment.. I have two tanks with African Cichlids. One is a 72 gallon bow and one is a 47 gallon bow. I have these lights on both tanks and would recommend them to anyone that wants to get away from traditional flouresecent lighting.

I have a 2 light set up for foreground and background plants with different spectrum sweet spots. I dropped some advice on how I "tricked" the lights into separate programming - I suppose you could also simply program one, unplug it, then do the other. The remote seems to use a common freq but you can program independently by only plugging one in at a time or blocking the signal. 75 gal, 20 in depth - but running a CO2 system on a timer so my plants are getting help.

Yes, I have two (and they are different sizes. I run both on the same setting. I would suggest that you DIY up a mount instead of using the double face tape on the back of the sensor. The sensor lights are fairly long, but not long enough for me to permanently stick to my tank. I like to move my lights to the corner of my room during maintenance time. The power cord reaches but the sensor cord won't if it is permanently affixed to your tank. I just cut a 3x2 inch piece of Plexiglass strip and glued suction cups to the back of the rectangle then stuck the sensors to the opposite side. This way when I do pruning or cleaning I can simply pop off both sensors and move the lights far out of my way.

As long as you place the sensor attached to each fixture together you should have no problem operating both fixtures at the same time. You have to be able to point the remote at the sensor to make your lighting changes.

The remote sensor is attached by a 3 foot cable you can mount the two so they both pick up the signal from one remote. on a side note buying two for plants probably won't work the individual bulbs don't have the power to penetrate to the bottom of the tank so adding 2 or 10 still won't have the power plants need however I have a T5 fixture running on a trimmer for 5 hours a day and this running day/night cycles 24/7

For the best quality lighting of the aquarium go the next size up. You can use the 18-24" size , but the light itself is only 18" , leaving 6" of aquarium top without light over it. I purchased the 48" light to fit my 90 gallon , which is 48" long.

this is a personal preference type of question. I have 2 tanks with this light. one tank is 29 gal. tall with the 24-36 inch light and a 28 gal hex with the 18-24 inch light. the light on the hex goes from end to end so the light in the tank is brighter than the 29 gal tank because that light isabout 3.5 inches in from each side of tank ,so on the 29 you can see the different colors a lot better if the light doesn't go from end to end. but there is a lot of adjustment of the colors with the remote. me personally I would recommend the 18-24 inch light.

I don't have a cover (life planted tank and wanted to max the depth penetration without having to factor conveyance). I wipe them with a wet paper towel every weekend and they come back clear and scale free with very little pressure.

I would devise some type of transparent cover for your tank as I am not a fan of open tops when using lighting systems that set atop the aquarium rim. First of all there's just more risk because light units are going to be moved from time to time over an open tank. Second, even if a light system is rated as waterproof for an open tank, use over the long-term will result in exposure to dampness from evaporation and splashing fishes, which even if it does not harm the unit, it will cause a build up of mineral deposits on the lens cover, and require periodic cleaning. However, this lighting system does have a cover and the LEDs are not directly exposed. An option is to devise a method of hanging this light fixture to reduce risk. There are many such devices available now from various companies. This particular light could be easily adapted for hanging. I would call Current and see what they recommend on all points I've mentioned above.
